The 2008 facelift brought a restyled front spoiler and a new dashboard but kept the quirkiness of the rear design.
The three-door version of the Citroen C4 in 2004 launched a revival for the bold Citroen design from the past, with its unconventional rear design. The rear was different between the three and five-door versions that the two models are known as separate cars, not variations of the same car. Both cars are also known for their extensive infusion of technology usually reserved for more expensive models: fixed steering wheel hub, lane departure warning system, directional headlights and a perfume dispenser integrated into the ventilation system.
